Protective Order Violations
Call the Law Offices of Daniel J. Miller: (757) 267-4949
Having a protective order issued against you can make your life difficult, since it will show up in a criminal background search. Unfortunately, a violation of a protective order is a serious crime, resulting in jail time and other severe penalties.
If you were recently arrested and charged with a protection order violation, or believe that an order was unfairly issued against you, our attorney at The Law Offices of Daniel J. Miller can help. With over 25 years of experience, our legal team has helped numerous clients with domestic violence cases and has a thorough understanding of the state legal system to determine all of your available legal options.
Penalties for Violation of a Protective Order
Violation of a protective order is a Class 1 misdemeanor that is punishable by a maximum jail sentence of one year and a fine of up to $2,500. If you are found guilty of violating a protective order, you will have an additional order against you for a maximum of two additional years.

Our Virginia Beach criminal defense attorney can investigate the circumstances of the order and the violation, collect crucial evidence, and develop an effective and relentless defense strategy. We can protect your rights, reputation, and freedom right away.

I was very nervous when I had to go to court over a traffic accident I was recently involved in. Dan put me at ease almost immediately with his knowledge and tenacity. By the time Dan was finished questioning the other people involved in the accident I did not even have to testify (which was the major source of my nervousness). My innocence was clear to everyone in the room, thanks to Dan. Would definitely use him again and recommend him to others. Aside from his performance during the hearing he was very easy to contact and always kept appointments with me. He also answered all of my questions patiently and with understanding.- Client

Got a referral from a friend. "Call this guy I heard he's good." With much skepticism I called.
Dan did an excellent job for me. You will notice immediately he is smart, decisive, no nonsense and many more great qualities you want in a lawyer. It took very little time to see I just hired one of the best lawyers I've ever met.Professionally speaking, If you want somebody to tell you all the wonderful things that make you feel all fuzzy and warm its not Dan in my opinion.
However, if you want a highly intelligent, brutally honest, focused, driven lawyer that will shoot straight every time AND go the extra mile to make sure no rock is left unturned... Dan is the man!

I hired Mr. Miller initially for a bond hearing . I decided to retain his services for the case itself . I was facing two felony charges as well as a failure to appear charge . While there were witnesses that were able to identify me, I walked out of Virginia Beach Courthouse with only a misdemeanor thanks to Mr. Miller's representation . I work in the healthcare profession and expressed to Mr. Miller the importance of avoiding a felony charge and he made it happen. I am forever grateful and will highly recommend him . Mr. Miller will always represent myself as well as family members if need be in the future . Again thank you Mr. Miller for using your knowledge to keep me from being a convicted felon and also saving my career.- C. Dickens

Mr. Miller and his team worked diligently on my case and I am forever truly greatly. It was a long process but with prayer and fasting, I had faith in Mr. Miller and his team to get the results that I prayed for. They were straight forward and very patient at the same time. My husband is the one who search for lawyers/attorneys and Mr. Miller was the first and only choice. I can't say enough how grateful I am for all your hard work and fight that you did behind the scenes. God bless you Mr. Miller and your whole team.- M. Sellers
